front mount ic ?
i have been looking to buy a intercooler and i noticed that they are selling front mount for a single turbo and a front mount for the stock turbos. my question is whats is the diffrence between the two? also i plan to get a single turbo in about a year or so would it be ok to run the single turbo ic with the stock turbos until i upgrade? or should i just get an m2 large? thanks

I got the m2 large and you should do a search for intercooler and my user name. I have had nothing but problems with it. The only difference between the intercooler for twins vs. single is the piping. If you know you are going single in a year then get the one for the single, save the piping and have a shop fabricate some piping that will suffice till you upgrade to a single. Just my .02

Well...I have the BLitz FMIC and it is the best s*ht i've upgraded on my FD...The kit is so complete and it doesn't require you to remove the front bumber either but you do need to get a smaller battery. As far as single turbo conversion...you can always get some shop to fabricate some piping...I was able to install the FMIC myself.. do a search under MJW....he has details on installing the Blitz FMIC.
